Change Descriptions
Descriptions
Version
Firmware modified to correct the following:
When printing in duplex, the last odd page is printed onto the reverse side of the
last sheet (the machine will now feed all sheets through the duplex unit to ensure
the last image appears on the front side).
With this version onward, please set controller Bit SW2 bit 4 to “1” (On).
Change in Specification:
Added Euro Symbol Sets PC858, Latin 9, and Roman 9 for display of the Euro
currency symbol.
1.15
Firmware modified to correct the following problem:
While downloading PS fonts to a machine with the HDD option installed, the correct
PS serial number cannot be output.
1.14
Change in specification:
New feature added so that the controller can detect the individual codes in the data
headers of a print job sent with both PCL and PS codes, thereby allowing the
machine to switch between the PDLs (PCL/PS) accordingly.
